Whether it is for everyday shopping or withdrawing local currency from cash machines, wherever you see the MasterCard Acceptance Mark your card is accepted.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO TRANSFER MONEY?

The money is available in minutes when the card is loaded via an approved cashplus retail outlet.

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?

The price comparisons for Cordoba Gold Cashplus prepaid MasterCard mean that the money you save on transfer fees can be used by your loved ones abroad for things that they really want to spend money on.
